🎯 About General Elective at Woodmont
What does 'Elective credit' mean at Woodmont College?
Elective credit fills the elective portion of a Woodmont degree — credits required for graduation but not tied to a specific named course or general education category. Every Woodmont degree program reserves a portion of total credits for electives, which gives students flexibility to round out their program.
How many elective credits do I need for my Woodmont degree?
Woodmont's degree programs each define an elective credit minimum within the total (60 credits for the Associate, 120 for the Bachelor's). The specific count varies by program. Check Woodmont's current academic catalog for the exact elective credit requirement.
Can I use Healthcare Finance and Budgeting for Woodmont electives even though it's a science course?

How many UPI Study courses can I stack as electives at Woodmont?
Up to the overall 70% transfer cap (84 credits for the Bachelor's). Woodmont doesn't impose a separate elective cap beyond that, so you can stack multiple UPI Study elective courses as long as they fit within total transfer maximum and your program's elective requirement.
Is elective credit 'worth less' than named course credit?
No — credit is credit toward your Woodmont degree. Elective credits count fully toward the 60-credit Associate or 120-credit Bachelor's total. The only difference is they fill the 'elective' bucket on your transcript rather than a specific named course. They have the same weight in graduation requirements.

About this course

Understanding Healthcare Finance and Budgeting for your Woodmont credit.

What is Healthcare Finance and Budgeting?

Healthcare Finance and Budgeting looks at how money moves through healthcare organizations and how those organizations plan, track, and report their finances. It covers the basics of accounting, budgeting, revenue, costs, payer systems, and the rules that affect financial decisions in hospitals, clinics, and other health settings.

How the course teaches you

You complete Healthcare Finance and Budgeting online at your own pace, working through video lessons on accounting, budgeting, revenue, costs, and payer systems, then moving through quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. Your grade is split evenly across four parts: 25% attendance, 25% quizzes, 25% assignments, and 25% final exam. Finishing the course produces transcript credit, and Woodmont College recognizes that credit as a General Elective.

How it helps beyond the classroom

Reading a financial statement, estimating what a service costs, and checking actual spending against a budget are skills that come up in most roles inside clinics, hospitals, and other health organizations. At Woodmont, the credit counts toward elective requirements, so it can fill open elective space in the BS in Business, where budgeting and financial reporting are central, or in the BS in Technology or BS in Psychology, where it adds a working finance background to the rest of the degree.

Skills you walk away with

Interpret healthcare financial statementsApply basic accounting principles in health settingsAnalyze fixed, variable, and indirect costsUse ratio analysis and cost estimationBuild and review budgets and forecastsUnderstand revenue cycle and cash flowRecognize fraud risks and reporting integrity issues

Taking this course toward Woodmont

After you finish, your transcript is sent to Woodmont College, and the registrar applies the course under the articulation agreement between Woodmont and UPI Study. Woodmont assigns it as a General Elective, which means it counts toward total credit hours and elective requirements rather than a specific course in your major. Woodmont accepts up to 84 credits (70%) in transfer, and this course draws from that total. Check your Woodmont degree plan to confirm how the elective fits your BS in Business, BS in Technology, or BS in Psychology.

Who this course is for

This course fits students who already have some college credit and want to finish a Woodmont degree without retaking material they do not need, including working adults with limited time and students mindful of cost. Because Woodmont treats it as a General Elective, it will not satisfy a named major or general education requirement, and it uses part of the 84-credit (70%) transfer ceiling, so it is a poor choice for anyone who needs it to meet a specific course requirement or who has already reached that ceiling.
